‘Be kind to animals’ movement launched for children
A “Be kind to animals” movement has been launched in Tokyo along most practical lines, the prime mover being Mrs. Charles Burnett, wife of Lt. Col. Burnett, the American Military Attache, who has enlisted the hearty support of a number of prominent Japanese citizens of the capital. The Japanese press has pledged its cooperation and the campaign of education is now well under way.
The initial move in the campaign is to secure funds for the installation and maintenance throughout Tokyo of drinking troughs for horses and dogs. Mrs. Burnett’s plan being to interest the school children of the city through a systematic canvas for one sen from each school child, thus enabling every child to have a share in the fountains, and, through this beginning, to learn to be kind to all dumb brutes.
